A correspondent writing from
London to the New York Engineer
ing and Mining Journal regard
ing the floating of mines says:
The mining sypdicstes formed
in London may very fairly be
classed as vendors of mines. -Oc-
casionally, when it becomes evil
dent that a mine can only be &C.
quired for cash, a syndicate is
formed for that purpose, and just
as we at home secure subscriptions
for the purchase of property. SO
also here it can occasionally be
done through personal acquaintance
and influence.
The nearest approach to such a
combination is to be found in sew
eral corporations for the most part
formed by members of some sue
cessful mining company who are
ready to take the trouble and ex-
pense of investigating the merits Of
mines that may be offered, and, il
satisfied, to provide the funds re-
quisite for brining out" the prop
erty also in some cases to lend
their individual names as directors,
etc. For these undertakings, a
commission is expected, payable
mostly in shares, and varying from
a minimum Of fifteen per cent to a
maximum of say three hundred
per cent.
Naturally these promoting corpo-
rations can not investigate every
mine that is offered to them. To
secure any attention, properly pre-
pared descriptions and reports OF
the property must be submitted. II
these papers are not signed by some
one in whom the particular COM
pany has confidence, the person
presenting the matter will be asked
to pay the cost of the company's
verifying the representations
made.
1t is a sad fact that this examin-
alton begins and ends the business
Of some London syndicates; the
examining engineer pockets his fee
leash i'm advance). makes a more
or less hurried visit to the property,
and readily finds some reason for
rejecting it. This course may be
maintained for years, and afford a
very good income to the engineer,
subject only to his sharing it with
some shrewd friend who represents
the syndicate in necessary con-
tracts.
Let me advise every American
would-be vender to supply himself
with reports properly prepared
both as to substance and form, by
known engineers. or to bring $4,000
along to pay for verifying his state
ment of those of some local expert
who has supplied few sheets OF
legal cap typewriter remarks.

ENGLISH DETECTIVES.

The men who show special apti-
tude for the work are first sent out
and tested as patrols in plain dress
afterward they are detached as di-
visional detectives. Each of the
divisions has its own detective con.
stables, the sergeants being always
on duty at the central station. The
superintendent or inspector is in
attendance from 8 to 3 to receive
applications for assistance and to
issue orders. The duties of the
city detectives are especially diff
cult and delicate. Now and again,
of course, they have to trace out
the perpetrators of a commonplace
murder or ordinary burglary. But
as rule they are chiefly concerned
with commercial frauds, where the
criminal is presumably as quick
witted as themselves, and has prob
ably taken his precautions against
discovery. Generally he has already
made tracks and sought refuge in
foreign countries. He may have
gone where there is no extradition
treaty; but as there are many dis
agreeables to be. met with among
foreigners, whose manners he dis
likes, and Of whose language he is
ignorant, he more frequently takes
a passage for America or Australia.
1t seems SO easy to change your
name. to cast your skin, and lose
yourself in a new existence among a
great English-speaking population.
Even in the former case, and be-
yond the range of extradition treat
les, the refuge from justice is not
altogether safe. Should the detec-
tive follow HIM up and find him
out existence may be made un-
pleasant or even intolerable. The
agent Of the English law can stick
to the fugitive like his shadow, and
by communicating with foreign con-
freres, who eagerly lend assistance,
can make any continental retreat
uncommonly hot. AS matter OF
fact, successful pursuits and ulti-
mate captures are for the most part
mere questions of money. If a no.
torious absconder is not tracked
and brought back, it is generally
because those who have been robbed
and wronged have personal reasons
for hushing up the affair. At this
moment there are city gentlemen
once sufficiently notorious, left te
themselves and to their consciencet
in Spain and in Sweden, whose
present addresses are as we'll known
as that Of any respectable merchant
in the postoflice directory. But il
such cases the police are powerless
unless private enterprise sets then
in motion.

There is no doubt that the South
is as solidly in favor of a radical
reform in the tariff now as she ever
was. There may be a noticeable
protection sentiment in the sugar
producing section of Louisiana,
and in Alabama and Tennessee
towns where iron is manufactured
but, taken as q whole, the South is
now, as she has been for years, in
favor Of a tariff for revenue, and
not for protection.

A Wealthy Crank.

There is lodger at one of the up-
town hotels, venerable bachelor, who
has occupied small hall ON the top
floor for the past twenty years without
being absent q night says the New
York Times. He is worth between
$40. 600. 900 and $l2, 1000, 900, chiefly
inherited real estate, and probably
never spends tenth of his princely
income, the only extravaganza be ever
permits himself being a fine pair of
horses, which he drives every after
noon on the road in solitaryand melan-
choly style. He is On encyclopedia of
local genealogy and data, and In early
life made prolonged tour of the globe
and his "reminiscences of foreign To-
calities is as expensive as his city
"reminiscences. He devotes himself to
attending his vast interests and steadi-
ly increasing his accumulatious. He
owns three contiguous blocks of un-
improvedproperty in the upper part of
the city. While livingiu such economi-
cal manner in one of the cheapest aud
plainest rooms in the hotels, he owns
by Inheritance from bachelor brother
a handsome residence on Fifth avenue
and magnificent county seat onS Stat
en Island, which he keeps open with
the retinue ofservants by the late mas
ter, but which he enters but once o
month topay the wages. Asked why
be never occupied one of these resi-
dences he replied that he felt more at
home in his little room, and stated that
be kept the two places the same as in
his brothers. lifetime, although the ex-
pense is great and needless under the
circums tances, out of respect to his
brciher's memory, as he always took
great pride in the estates
